Turbo intake pipe ATL 90

[George Hogg]

I found out yesterday on a 90 that the air intake hose to the turbo was broken at the flange which attaches it to the turbo. I also found that a BHC pipe fits but the flange is clocked in comparison to the ATL. It’s rotated by approximately 20deg so the bolt holes are way out

. So until I can source a proper ATL pipe I’ve made up adapters, they’re not pretty but it gets it back on the road.
The pipe needs a good push onto the turbo and it may be that the pipe wasn’t pushed on all the way before the bolts to the turbo were tightened. One to watch.

Can the original pipe be sleeved to seal the area, or the same sleeve used to join the pipe and flange after cutting it off and clocking correctly on the BHC pipe?
